Connecting to and testing a S3 bucket:
sudo apt install -y awscli # Ubuntu
sudo yum install -y awscli # RHEL
#curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip" && unzip awscliv2.zip && sudo ./aws/install # if no repos are available
#sudo pip3 install awscli # this command can also be used if running from a TVM. Using sudo is MANDATORY so we don't touch the virtual environment!
